When Royal Niger Company (today known as the company UAC) sold Nigeria to Britain for less than a billion dollars, was it theirs to sell?
Royal Niger company are a group of rogue white men who came to Africa to do business in the 17th century and sold Nigeria, a land they are not from nor own, to their parent country.
Does history record this as a LARGE-SCALE 419 and ask Interpol to show us to the graves of these fraudsters and for England to give us back what is ours?
What has been the role of America, UK, Switzerlan and Cayman Island in duping Africa of her resources? Can we get back every kobo, including companies built by moneys stolen off our lands by their citizens or our stolen wealth kept in their banks?
Oh! It is a new day now some Africans understand the system and repatriate funds home for the development of their homeland/Ile?
Who put those African artifacts in all the foreign museums? Who did they pay to get it? I do not remember my great-grandfather selling his “god” “Ejdu Uvwie” to anyone. Yet it is in British Museum.
Shell, Chevron, Mobil etc. What really are they? Christian companies? Ogoniland, Oloibiri, and the waters of Forcados and Escravos will disagree.
Same countries that have STOLEN and DEFRAUDED us and then worked with some of us to continue to defraud us become HOLIER-THAN-THOU once they realize some people are now defrauding them and SENDING THE MONEY TO AFRICA.
I am a student of history. I know where my support truly lie when it comes to those who succeed in ….
You do not have to agree with me. You can form saint and not understand that life is a cycle and someday Africa will get hers back.
As someone with KNOWLEDGE as opposed to just being educated, pardon me if my sympathies ETERNALLY lie with the one who goes out to bring wealth home.
Why do I even say PARDON ME? Who your pardon epp?
I UNABASHEDLY KNOW WHERE MY SYMPATHIES LIE.
PEACE be unto you in the land and in the AIR.
